The staff was so helpful and nice; our rooms were cleaned daily! Plus their breakfast each morning was amazing! Close to our hop on/hop off bus tour location.

Efficient, comfortable and clean. Excellent breakfast buffet and very friendly staff. Despite double glazing there's a little street noise so bring ear plugs. Beware at night during the short walk from the nearby Metro, thieves are active near the stations.

The room was nice enough and clean which is about the only good thing I can say. The hotel has no bar and no restaurant, despite it being advertised on Expedia, Tripadvisor and their own website as having both. You couldn't even get a coffee except with breakfast. The shower was like standing under a tap. The breakfast was cold - yes I do mean the sausages, bacon and the eggs. Even when I had breakfast one morning 5 mins after the breakfast room opened, it was cold. The mini-bar only contained two bottles of water. I had a good time in Athens, but the hotel spoiled it a little bit. And there was no soundproofing. Athens has a vibrant nightlife which is worth experiencing, but when you need sleep you don't want to be hearing or woken up by dogs barking, people shouting at each other, or the sound of a vehicle going past at 4 a.m. I definitely would not stay there again.

Perfect location if you want to explore by foot! Right next to a metro station but we were able to walk just about everywhere we wanted to go. Bread factory is a 5 minute walk away and was the perfect place to get breakfast every morning. The staff was super helpful in making recommendations for things to do and places to go! So glad we stayed here!

Hardly a 4-star hotel. What 4-star hotel charges separately for using an iron/ ironing board, and what 4-star hotel imposes separate charge of 4 euros for hot chocolate at breakfast, when breakfast is included in the rate? Also, we felt unwelcome, as our DOUBLE room had been supplied with towels for just one person, and we had to go to the receptionist to ask for more towels --- but why should we have to -- at a 4-star hotel? It doesn't matter how "friendly" they appear to be and how widely they smile -- the impression we got when faced with just 1 set of towels was -- that one of us two guests, must be unwelcome. And when that's the first impression as soon as you first arrive in your room, not much can change it. Also, they would not leave a spare toilet roll in the bathroom (again, 4-star property??!?), and when we ran out, we had to go to the receptionist late at night to ask for toilet paper, and what he brought us, was half a roll, obviously left over from another guest...

The positives: The team at the hotel work hard to make their guests welcome. The property has been renovated and is a pleasant place to stay. The bed was comfortable and the breakfast was good. Nearby are some cheap and friendly bars and restaurants. The negatives: the room we booked was too small. Perhaps we should have upgraded. Nevertheless, we were disappointed. The hotel location is north west of the main tourist areas and it is best to use the metro, which is very close to the hotel. The walks to Plaka, Monastiraki and the Acropolis involve negotiating some run down streets.

The hotel was in a great location, was clean and great for a short stay. However there was no hot water, we had cold/luke warm showers everyday (5 nights stay). We informed hotel staff of the lack of hot water after the first day we were told other guests have said the same but it must be because we were using the shower during peak hours?...which seems odd as a hotel should be able to accommodate to maximum guest capacity.

We were very happy with our experience at this hotel. The hotel staff were extremely friendly and helpful. We loved their breakfast buffet as well. We got the Family suite with 2 connecting rooms and it worked perfectly for us since there are 4 of us. The TVs in both of our rooms were small. I wish they had a larger TV, but it's really not that big a deal.

My family of 6 stayed at the junior suite for 4 days. All the staff members were extremely friendly and helpful throughout our stays. The hotel is located only 3 minutes walk to the subway station and it is only 3 stops to the Syntagma Square, the busiest tourist center of the city. We enjoyed our stay at the hotel and appreciate the kindness shown by all staff members during out stay.

Great value
Cute little hotel with very friendly staff. It is located a short two minute walk from the metro which will take you directly to the Acropolis or anywhere else in Athens. The room was comfortable, though there was some noise at night due to the street below (not hotel's fault). We stayed for three nights. The surrounding neighborhood is okay, but not somewhere most tourists will want to spend their time. The hotel is definitely a good value and we would stay there again. Free parking is available down the street in a large garage where someone will take your car and park it for you. Breakfast was decent.

Location is very convenient. It's 1 min away from the metro station. Room was spacious. Breakfast was fair. Inconvenience: we couldn't comtrol the AC temperature. We had to call the reception to adjust it and then we discovered that turning it off was not possible either. Water was not very hot the first night. We told the lady who was at the reception but she seemed surprised and did not bother to confirm that the issue will be taken care of. Overall experience was ok. But the service was not the best.

First of all there are several lotus hotels in Athens with the same name and pictures of the building and rooms are also very similar if not the same. I don’t know if it is done intentionally to confuse people but we had stayed in a Lotus before in athens and it looked exactly the same. Please pay attention to the address before booking. This property does not have an iron they said they iron for a price, they want to make money out of your wrinkled clothes. When we arrived the taxi left us a block away to walk to the hotel with all our suitcases because the street was closed for local street vending. Be aware that if you stay here the Parthenon is about 25-30 minutes away walking distance. If you use a taxi it can get expensive.

A good all round experience.
A lovely comfortable hotel with friendly, efficient staff. Good choice "American Buffet" breakfast. Air conditioning worked well and strong, free WiFi. We had a problem with our room which was sorted over and above our expectations. Very convenient for the metro and although the area doesn't look that nice it actually feels pretty safe even at night.
